Gensym has finally officially made me an offer, and I have finally officially accepted. Well, I sent email saying I accept. I still have to deliver the signed offer letter and NDA. But, basically, I have a job. Huzzah!
I start on Monday, January 24th. There's still the matter of finishing my dissertation revisions and preparing for the defense presentation, but I'm pretty sure I can do that on evenings and weekends. (The defense is tentatively scheduled for mid-February, but I'll keep you all posted. Although really I'd be more comfortable if nobody showed up so I could talk to an empty room.) I'm thinking that having a job will be less distracting than worrying about getting a job, but we'll see.
